Chapter 11 Gao Jie enters Beijing

The stronger the Xia Dynasty, the more uneasy Mrs. Xing felt in her heart.

But I don't know how to persuade Gao Jie.

Gao Jie has a period of obedience to Mrs. Xing's words, Gao Jie can make a decision immediately and sell He Renlong to Sun Chuanting, this step, there is Mrs. Xing's opinion.

It's just that Gao Jie later seemed to feel that his career was big. I didn't listen to some of Mrs. Xing's words.

Mrs. Xing also knew this, so she didn't talk much. Only when Gao Jie asked her did he say.

"Gao Lang." Mrs. Xing said: "The Luo family is not thin on us, even if it is not based on the love of the old man, it is kind to us today. But looking at the meaning of today, I'm afraid that sooner or later it will have to be cut. Zheng Zhilong is a businessman and will never trade at a loss.

"Doesn't he see the benefits of his family's family town of Fujian? Why is this decision made? It's probably touching the temper of the new emperor. ”

"I am willing to use Fujian Province to sell a good one to Xindi."

"I don't know what Gao Lang is thinking in his heart, I just say that as soon as possible, if Zhang Xuan swept the south and drove the Ming court into the poor mountains and bad waters. After a few years of hard work, the south resisted, even if Sichuan could not be included in the territory in the future. Now in the situation. It is also a situation of the Northern and Southern Dynasties. ”

"Whatever you want to do, do it as soon as possible."

Gao Jie sat up abruptly and said, "What if I want to conquer Nanjing and become emperor?" ”

Mrs. Xing was most afraid of Gao Jie's thoughts, and after listening to Gao Jie's words, her body couldn't help shaking, and she gritted her teeth and said, "I'll follow." Ever since I came out of the camp, I've said that I will follow you in everything you do in this life. ”

When Gao Jie heard this, he laughed, hugged Mrs. Xing in his arms, and slid a finger along Mrs. Xing's cheek, with a feeling of jealousy, depression, and loss in his tone, and said: "In my life, there is no emperor's life." ”

Gao Jie, as a general in command of the army, also has a clear understanding of the situation.

He knew that it was impossible to take another step, just like the foundation of the founding of the country on the Luo side. But let him give up his nearly 100,000 troops and the territory of several prefectures, and obediently hand them over to the Great Xia court. Gao Jie was still a little unwilling in his heart.

A lot of times, people know what to do right. But there are all kinds of reluctance in my heart.

Mrs. Xing's heart moved, and she said, "Since Gao Lang has this heart, why don't you ask Master Dezong?" ”

Gao Jie's heart moved, and he said secretly: "That's right." ”

During the Ming and Qing dynasties, the world changed dramatically, the world was impermanent, and the living became dead ghosts in a blink of an eye. All kinds of changes made Buddhism very popular, and the Qing court believed in Buddhism from the empress dowager onwards. There are even rumors that Emperor Shunzhi became a monk. In the Ming court, there were also many ministers who saw that they could not do anything and retreated to become monks.

He even formed an intensive association as a monk in an attempt to recover.

And many generals, who seem to have killed too many people, believe in Buddhism in order to seek salvation. Gao Jie is one of them.

And Dezong is a famous monk.

After Gao Jie saw it, he talked with him and was very convinced, and called him a teacher.

On the second day, Gao Jie went to visit Dezong.

But I saw Dezong doing a morning class in the Daxiong Treasure Hall, and the smell of sandalwood permeated the four fields, mixed with the sound of countless monks chanting. Gao Jie looked up at the statue of the Buddha, and even had a solemn feeling, and couldn't help but fold his hands and whispered: "Amitabha." ”

After Dezong finished his morning class, he invited Gao Jie in.

The two of them seemed to sit in meditation in front of the Buddha. Dezong said, "What do you have to ask the old man when you come here? ”

Gao Jie said: "The teacher is like a god. Then he said in a low tone: "I killed countless people in the first half of my life. Now, although I am in a high position, I feel a sense of trembling, and I would like to ask the teacher, will I be spared from the disaster in the future? ”

The beard of the old monk of Dezong has long been white, and it seems that there is some Taoism, even if he sits in meditation without saying a word, there is a solemn meaning of treasure. Dezong said: "Do you regret it? ”

Gao Jie smiled slightly and said, "Repentance? What do I have to regret, the teacher doesn't know what Shaanxi was like back then? It's like the evil ghost road reappearing in the world, and I'm always the one who survived? Even if I had to do it all over again, I should still kill and kill. After all, I want to live. ”

"It's just, it's just unbearable."

Dezong said: "Amitabha, lay people have no compassion at all. It shows that laymen have wisdom roots. If the layman is returned to the imperial court as the king of the county, the army is in Jiangbei. It is valued by the imperial court. However, this is not enough to protect the lay people from calamity, and it is not too late to make amends. In the future, lay people only need to make more merits. Heaven will bless you. Start and finish. ”

Gao Jie said, "Teacher, how is this a merit, how about I reshape the golden body of the Buddha?" ”

Dezong said: "Amitabha, not that the Buddha loves the golden body, but that ordinary people love the golden body, the way of respecting the Buddha, in a sincere word, only the heart has the Buddha, even if it is an earthen statue, what does the wooden statue have to do." I dare not lead lay people astray. ”

"The layman is in a high position, and when he only needs to do something, he thinks about one thing, can this matter be lived?"

"Saving someone's life is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter. As long as the layman has this thought all the time. It will be blessed by heaven and man. The calamity goes away by itself. ”

Gao Jie bowed down on the futon and said, "Disciple, thank you for your guidance. ”

Dezong said, "Amitabha, I only hope that you will practice well in the future. It's not in vain that you call me a teacher. ”

Gao Jie said: "The disciple understands. ”

Gao Jie was very respectful and slowly withdrew from the temple. After returning home and thinking about it for a long time, he sighed slightly, and said secretly: "I will raise troops to go south, and I don't care whether this matter is successful or not." Cause a war in vain. The people are plunged into an abyss of misery. Why bother, I am now the king of the county, and I am extremely rich, and then even as a rich idler in Great Xia, there is nothing bad about it. And according to the precedent of placing Zheng Zhilong, I will definitely enter the Privy Council. It can also find a good way out for the brothers. ”

"In that case, it is better to go back. It's better to go back. ”

After Gao Jie figured it out, he played Nanjing. didn't say anything else, just wanted to enter Beijing to meet His Majesty.

Although Gao Jie thinks so, he will not show all the hole cards by himself, so he naturally wants to have a good talk with the Great Xia court.

However, even so, Gao Jie's letter also caused an uproar in the Great Xia court.

Luo Yulong couldn't believe it. said: "Didn't you think that King Huai would have this intention? ”

As far as Luo Yulong himself is concerned, he has long wanted to get Gao Jie into Beijing. But he didn't dare to make an order lightly. lest I push Gao Jie too hard. Now that Gao Jie actually wrote a book to talk about this matter, Luo Yulong didn't agree to the gift, and with a wave of his pen, he agreed.

And send someone to a grand gesture to welcome Gao Yigong.

Gao Yigong also showed great sincerity, as if he was moving, even Mrs. Xing brought it over, set off from Huai'an, took a boat into the canal, changed boats on the Yangtze River, and went directly to Nanjing Wharf to go ashore. After going ashore,. But he saw a man kneeling on the ground, crying out, "Father, mother." ”

Gao Jie saw that it was his son, Gao Yuanjue.

The military academy was not run for a while, but Luo Yulong learned a lot about the system of guards around Zhang Xuan, and now many of the guards in the palace are the children of the generals below. Or orphans in the army. Half a day on duty, half a day to order the lieutenant general to teach. Therefore, Gao Yuanjue looks a lot darker and thinner.

Gao Jie saw it and said, "Okay, it's a little manly." ”

Father and son meet and talk about it, so naturally there is no need to say much.

They entered the city of Nanjing. All the way through the Qinhuai River, some prosperous areas of the Confucius Temple.

At this moment, it has been more than a year since the Luo father and son settled in Nanjing.

Although there are still many gentry who cherish the Ming Dynasty, Luo's rule is all about security. In many cases, it is all as it is. The interests of the gentry were not shaken by half a point, and the courtiers who were loyal to the Ming Dynasty were swept away one by one during the war.

When Great Xia didn't touch their interests, they would only slander them and let them do it with real swords, but they didn't dare.

And the people in Nanjing are even more forgetful.

Or not forgetfulness, but in this megacity with a population of one million, many people are busy supporting their families. Where to take care of the change of the king's flag at the head of the city.

At this moment, what Gao Jie saw was a scene of tourists and the city, which seemed to make him forget for a while that it was still in troubled times, as if the world had long been peaceful.
